New Song To Come

This one I plan to have a long instrumental build in, then the verse when it’s time, then I’ll play it out. There’s not a lot of words in this one. I didn’t feel like adding anything to it would improve it. It’s a change of pace, too! Stay tuned for when I have time to do something about it.

——————————————————–

we were young
we saw things as they were
we held our breath and wondered how
they soared above the treetops, now
we think we know
we tore the curtain down
we know what happens to our bones
they’re laughing in the catacombs below
oh, we know

The Shepherd’s Garden

UPDATE: I named it. Subject to change if I can get a little more subtle.

Here’s the rough draft of the book I’m trying to write – it’s 6 and a half chapters so far, partway into chapter 7. It is the first draft, so I apologize for any terribleness you may encounter. I was originally writing it for NaNoWriMo, but that didn’t pan out. I didn’t want to abandon it, though, so I’ve kept it around and done some work. This story and all the stuff in it that doesn’t belong to someone else, belongs to me. Copyright and all that. Enjoy, more to come…

In the event of my death…

On a whim, I thought of what I want done with my body when I die, which hopefully isn’t for another half century or more, but who’s to say? Since I’m sure wordpress will be around for that long, I’m putting it on here.
I hereby request to, upon my death, be interred in perpetuity in one of the following three ways, the first being preferred if at all possible at the time of my death, followed by the second, and then the third.
1. Put me in a tiny little rocket box and fire me off into the universe in a random direction. Maybe directed at a distant galaxy…
2. Bury me in a biodegradable shroud and plant a tree over me. Do not use any formaldehyde or non-biodegradable chemicals to preserve my body. I’m dead, I’m gonna get worse looking, just accept it. I prefer a place where the root system won’t disturb nearby graves, so something outside a designated public graveyard would be great. It probably shouldn’t be a fruit tree, since it might feel a little weird to eat fruit from it. On second thought, go ahead and make it a fruit tree. But pick something like apples at least. Or oranges, if the climate is right. Oranges are awesome.
3. If neither the rocket nor the tree burial can be worked out, cremate me and spread me over the Pacific. Anywhere is fine, since I’ll likely cover parts of the whole ocean floor at some point.

March of the Clouds.

open your eyes and wave goodbye

the clouds are marching ‘cross the sky

steady, slow, as if they know

one day they too are meant to die

aloof, aloft in wingless flight

lifeless grey and brilliant white

all are bound to feed the ground

from darkest depth to greatest height

plant your feet upon the earth

a right ascribed to you at birth

and still we wait, til far too late

to measure up that treasure’s worth

the jaws of time devour us all

you cannot run until you crawl

a cloud would tell you this as well

you cannot fly until you fall

Creative juices are flowing… eww…

I don’t know what it is about being at school, but I’ve been writing songs like crazy. Expect to hear some new ones in the next month or two! Woo.

Named that new song… Listen

Yes, I named it Listen. So there. Also, since I realize it’s a terrible take,  I’m gonna redo every part of it to make it tighter, more polished and more in tune. Just an update, this is. :)

What should my new song be called? Also, I have a new song.

So, I have this song I’ve been kicking around, trying to get it somewhere, and I’ve finally got it in decent shape. Problem is, I’ve never thought of a good name for this song, so… does anyone have any ideas? Let me know through my email or if you know me, just come to my house and crash a rock wrapped in your criticisms and ideas through my window. If you give me a good’n, I’ll use it! The rock, I mean.

The Yes Men Fix The World!

“THE YES MEN FIX THE WORLD is a screwball true story about two gonzo political activists who, posing as top executives of giant corporations, lie their way into big business conferences and pull off the world’s most outrageous pranks. This peer-to-peer special edition of the film is unique: it is preceded by an EXCLUSIVE VIDEO of the Yes Men impersonating the United States Chamber of Commerce. Because the Yes Men are being sued for this stunt, p2p is the only way that this film will get seen. Please spread the word!”

How to make a .cue file for a corresponding .bin file

It’s easy to make your own .cue file to correspond to a .bin file.
Simply make a new .txt file, and in the contents of it put
the following:

FILE “image-name.BIN” BINARY
TRACK 01 MODE1/2352
INDEX 01 00:00:00

But replace the image-name.BIN with the name of the .bin file. Then save the .txt file as image-name.CUE, and it should work!

Talkin’ Beer Pong Blues

well, I went to a friend’s house the other night
I drank and I smoked, I was feelin’ all right
I spotted somebody with a ping pong ball
overheard ‘em yell how he got ‘em all
went over to see what happened
turns out, he was right

sooner or later, my turn came up
my partner said try to sink a cup
I missed that shot, and the next one too
I said I must’ve forgot to wear my lucky beer pong shoes
guess I gotta make my own luck
or make my own shoes

after a while, my luck started to change
figured out my strength and the length of the range
I got a little cocky, made a trick shot or two
I even sunk a bounce shot out of the blue
it was beginner’s luck, at least,
that’s what the other team said

there was one cup left, we were down to the wire
if I made one more I’d be on fire
I took a deep breath and I focused my aim
for the game winning shot of my very first game
took my shot, missed completely
maybe I’ll do better tomorrow
